Question: What is your response regarding the comments of Eli Soriano of Ang Dating Daan about the prayers of Catholics?
This is in connection with the Litany of the Blessed Virgin Mary. He often criticizes the response, “Tower of David (pray for us).” He said, does the tower have a mouth that can speak? I saw that they were laughing during his program.
Answer:
I think Eli Soriano thinks he knows everything perfectly. That is why the Bible says.
“Anyone who claims to know all the answers doesn’t really know very much.”(1 Corinthians 8:2)
In this situation, we can see that Soriano does not understand the Figure of Speech since he interprets the Bible word-for-word. The Tower of David is symbolic of Mary.
If we will follow his logic and understanding, this is what the Bible states:
“Let the rivers clap their hands, Let the mountains sing together for joy.”(Psalms 98:8)
Does this mean that the river has hands?
